Dru ~ What a good idea for a company! I remember the first time I visited AZ from growing up on the East Coast. The terrain was so different, I found it hard to see the beauty. On that trip I took a guided hike in a National Park. The Ranger shared his knowledge and all at once I had a deeper appreciation for the dessert.

I find it hard to believe I was once blind its beauty!

Kristal, You are right about the hidden beauty of the desert, plus there’s something to be said for learning about the area from experts who love what they do!

Tracey,

Keep in touch, so we can keep up on your business happenings. We are just heading into the busy season, I’d guess.

I would love to stay in touch. I have you on my Twitter account also now. We are definitely heading into the more popular time of year to hike around here. After the holidays, we expect it will really pick up!
